Chapter 83: The Method to Obtain Two Altars at Once

One by one, the guild members felt hopeful after hearing Guild Leader Li Changde’s instructions.

With the addition of “Pharmacist Miss Kamier,” everyone’s survival rate and chances of staying alive greatly increased, boosting their material farming speed and leveling pace.

But that wasn’t all. More importantly, the guild leader had secured a connection with the thirteenth Beta Tester Player—the mysterious Kamiyu. It was truly a double blessing.

Farming materials for the big shot to build a Sanctuary meant that when the Hell Tide arrived, even if the Main City was destroyed, they could take refuge in the Sanctuary.

Moreover, with the Sanctuary built in the Wilderness Zone and the ability to travel back and forth between the Main City and the Sanctuary via the Teleportation Array, map clearing and preparations would become much more convenient and efficient.

Even Kamiyu wasn’t as eager as these veteran players.

One by one, the veteran players were overjoyed and eager, each impatient to start farming construction materials.

They eagerly anticipated the arrival of the new Sanctuary, hoping to see a new Sanctuary standing on the Crimson Earth, a new flame of hope igniting across the crimson land.

The three new player members, infected by the excited atmosphere, felt extremely fortunate to have stayed.

Li Changde waved his hand and said, “Everyone, rest up and collect your Potions before setting out.”

“Alright!” everyone shouted in unison.

Thus, the speech at the training ground concluded. Kamiyu was about to begin the next chapter—as the Beta Tester Kamiyu herself, she would tackle higher-difficulty Instance Dungeons to obtain the core item for building the Sanctuary: the 【Altar of Lilith】.

Kamiyu had read information about Sanctuaries. The Holy Mother Lilith was the creator of the Sanctuary. After her death, her fragments scattered across the Crimson Earth, transforming into Altars of Lilith.

Only with an Altar of Lilith could one borrow the magic of the Holy Mother Lilith to formally construct a Sanctuary.

However, this item was not classified as an ordinary Item. It was recognized as a game function, so her Construction Sage Talent couldn’t produce it. It could only be obtained by clearing Instance Dungeons.

Kamiyu learned that to obtain the 【Altar of Lilith】, she had to enter the 【Keystone Dungeon】 Instance Dungeon. After clearing it, she would acquire the Altar, and only then could she establish a Sanctuary in the Wilderness Zone of the Crimson Earth.

When she first learned this information, it felt like a “class change” quest—transitioning from a Player to a “Lord.”

Only after reaching a high-level equipment level and farming enough levels would she qualify to challenge the Keystone Dungeon. Clearing it would prove her worth, granting her a foothold on the Crimson Earth and the ability to protect her Sanctuary.

She felt that the Black Sphere had put great thought into this, with everything following a predetermined path. This was also why she didn’t dare to boast loudly or show off everywhere as soon as she entered the game.

A Beta Tester without a Sanctuary couldn’t truly be called a Beta Tester Boss and was nothing to fear.

So Kamiyu kept a low profile, developing steadily until she became strong enough to dare to take on the challenge.

Now, she felt the timing was right. With materials, her two Talents could finally be put to use.

Now that she had enough materials to construct equipment and 10 unused Enhancement Points, she decided to challenge the Keystone Dungeon, obtain the Altar of Lilith, and begin building her Sanctuary.

She had to race against time, to achieve this goal before the official players, before General Lei Yao’s pursuit.

Moreover, with the assistance of the Invincible Guild now, her goal could be reached more smoothly.

She thought to herself that when she obtained the Altar of Lilith, all their members should have farmed enough building materials.

Before a great battle, there must be preparation.

Kamiyu was now making her final preparations. She needed to clear out her storage, craft enough potions and equipment, and enhance her weapons. Her Magic Bullets still hadn’t been unlocked yet.

No matter how many plans were made, the most important thing was implementation. She was currently having a secret discussion with Li Changde in his office.

In the office, there were only two people.

“President Li, I need information on the Keystone Dungeon,” Kamiyu asked, sitting in a chair.

Li Changde said in surprise, “Miss Jia? You’re going to farm the Keystone Dungeon so soon? You’re only Level 10 now, won’t you wait a bit longer?”

From Li Changde’s perspective, Kamiyu was a Pharmacist class with extraordinary talent.

“Is there something special about it?” Kamiyu asked.

Li Changde took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and explained concisely: “The Keystone Dungeon doesn’t restrict Beta Testers or Ordinary Players.

But it’s an instance dungeon with ‘limited player count.’ The more people there are, the harder it is to farm. For each additional person, the difficulty doubles.

According to previously public records, Beta Tester Players need to reach at least Level 20 to successfully challenge it and obtain the key item for building a Sanctuary.”

“Level 20?” Kamiyu widened her eyes.

Level 20 was already the threshold for Elite Dungeons.

Based on player levels: Levels 1-10 are for Normal difficulty; Levels 11-20 for Hard difficulty; Levels 21-30 for Elite difficulty; Levels 31-40 for Penitence difficulty.

Even now, fighting the Level 15 Black-Scaled Water Snake Dungeon Boss was quite challenging for her. She couldn’t imagine what Aberrant Beast Demons would be like at Level 20.

“If we must farm with two people, how difficult would it be?” Kamiyu probed.

Li Changde pondered carefully for a while and said, “If Miss Jia doesn’t mind, I could go farm it with you. I’m a Level 29 Holy Light Priest class, I can heal.

You heal, I heal too. With double healing, grinding for a week or two should allow us to clear it.”

Kamiyu widened her eyes, “A week or two? Eating, drinking, sleeping, and everything else all inside the dungeon?”

Li Changde nodded, “That’s right. One person sleeps while the other keeps watch. That’s how we played when we first entered the Crimson Earth a year or two ago. Back then, entering a dungeon was like conquering a great snowy mountain.”

“Tsk, that’s too exaggerated,” Kamiyu said, seeing Li Changde lost in memories, looking nostalgic about the past.

Li Changde continued, “The Beta Tester I just mentioned who cleared it at Level 20 was Lei Yao. Back then, he hadn’t joined the official side yet. He and another Beta Tester Boss entered the dungeon together.”

“Two Beta Tester Players entering the dungeon together? Wouldn’t that give them two Altars of Lilith? Is that allowed?” Kamiyu countered.

“Wouldn’t they fight then? Those two people.”

“Miss Jia, you really are clever to have guessed it. Back then, two Beta Testers went in, but only one came out.” Li Changde’s implication was clear—the one who emerged was Lei Yao.

“Lei Yao killed the other Beta Tester inside. When he was still a newbie Beta Tester, he instantly gained two Sanctuaries. No wonder he’s so powerful now, with all the Official Players following his lead.” Kamiyu’s mouth hung open in astonishment.

It felt as if Kamiyu was listening to a secret from the past.

The two continued exchanging information.

The difficulty was even greater; for each additional person, the difficulty would double.

It seemed she needed to prepare more thoroughly.

After learning about the Keystone Dungeon, she didn’t fantasize about clearing it in one go. However, with Jack’s help, the possibility of clearing it in one attempt would increase significantly.

Speaking of which, why hadn’t Jack arrived yet? With his help, clearing the Keystone Dungeon would go much more smoothly.

In the Real World.

Jack was busy cleaning up after Kamiyu.

He drove the car to a bustling street in the city center, found a parking spot, and stopped.

Jack wasn’t afraid of being caught on camera because he was wearing the clothes of the agents from the car. Besides, he was an undocumented person himself, so there was no way to trace anything back to him.

“Well, since I’m already here, I might as well pick up a few things for Kamiyu on the way back. That doghouse of a place I call home is practically uninhabitable.”

While Jack was happily shopping, the agents’ logistics command center, having failed to receive the scheduled updates, ordered them to transmit their log information.

“Officer, Vehicle A291 still hasn’t reported its log.”

“Where are they?”

“City center, XX Road, opposite Xingbake.”

“Could something have happened? Send someone to check.”
